happy birthday to my blog!

Holy crap! This month marks one year since I started this blog.
I want to say a huge thank you to each and every one of you who has been following and reading it along the way – especially those who’ve been following from the beginning. You know who you are ; – ) To those who just started: ‘hello and welcome!’
You all honestly do keep me going.
If someone had told me that I would have been involved in even half the opportunities that have come my way this year, I would have burst out laughing.
With no real plan, other than to have a creative release, I can now honestly say that nothing beats finding a way to do what you love. Make sure you do too.

    Yippee Karen! I’m so pleased for you. It was always so obvious that you had such a passion for fashion. (Cliché alert!)

    I started blogging in July last year and it has given me a whole new lease of life, too. Highly recommend!

    Here’s to another good year for ya.

    Hi Karen congrats on making it to a year and with nearly a post every day that’s some hard work!!!

    It may sound really cliche but that last sentence “make sure you do too” couldn’t be more apt at the moment, I am on the verge of starting up my own blog, I’m excited and nervous that I won’t have enough things to fill it but I’m gonna give it a go just like you’ve said. 🙂
